Major - Background Effects

 For my background effects that make up the more abstract parts of the environment I am still deciding between a 2d or 3d/ after effects solution. I am leaning towards 2d as I like the look I am able to achieve however for time purposes I may have to stick to a 3d process.

Minor - Reflective Statement

Going into the minor project, I was fairly confident that I would be able to achieve what I had planned out in my premise project. In the end I feel I spent to long modelling my three characters which meant I was unable to complete the rigging process by the end of the project. I am pleased with how the characters look now, but I do wish that the rigs were completed. At the beginning of this project I spent lots of time redesigning different elements of my characters to fit a 3d environment which I do think will help me in the future.  

I think that the look and style I originally designed has translated well into a 3d space, which is something I was worried about.  

I am happy with what I do have, however, I have left myself lots to do in Major. Moving into the next project, now that the character modelling is done I think I will be able to work at a much faster pace and achieve the targets I set at the beginning.

Minor - Finalised Characters Models

Below are still renders of my finalised models for my three characters. The hair proved to be a challenging obstacle, in different ways to what I had predicted. The hair designs differ slightly from the orthographic drawings as I made changes during the modelling process. Overall, I am pleased with how the characters look, I feel that again the models took longer than I would have liked which may cause some timing problems later. 

 

Minor - OGR

 Each character essentially has the same face model with some changes to nose, mouth and eye structure. In the original designs their faces are very similar, the main difference will be their hair and colour.

Minor- Violet Model

Violet's model is complete for now. Details like hair, belt, and shoelaces is something I plan to add on once the second two models are completed. The next two models are almost identical apart from the hair designs so I should be able to get those completed within a few days. Over the next few weeks I plan to complete the rigging and skinning as well as some basic set modelling (the sets are pretty simplistic so wont take up to much time).
